3 Day Workshop on Spoken English for PRTs / ZIET BBSR 3

MUSINGS

When I first decided to plan for a workshop in Spoken English for PRTs, I was notsure how it would be accepted by the teachers. Planning the time table was a bigchallenge because three days is too short a time for such a venture. Moreover,there is always the doubt, ‘Have I bitten off more than I can chew?’

The experience proved very rewarding on many fronts. The time and energy I hadto put into the planning so that the teachers would benefit made me mentallyactive. Reviewing my knowledge and filling in gaps made me realize that ateacher or a teacher trainer has to always update herself. The curiosity andeagerness of the participants made me aware that I was doing something useful.And finally of course the joy of meeting friends, new and old.

The three resource persons again inspired me by their enthusiasm, their knowledgeand their skill in handling the class. Of course, this three day workshop is only ahumble beginning. Many more such workshops will be needed for more teachersto be covered and for brushing up and updating the knowledge of this group inparticular. Yet I am happy that the teachers have left with the awakening ofawareness that spoken English is also an integral part of their teaching of Englishand requires planning, practice and dedication.

15.7.2013 The three day spoken English programme for PRTs started with the registration of 40participants from 6 different regions of Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan. The DeputyCommissioner, Madam Usha Aswath Iyer, was the Course Director for the programme. She alongwith her team of ZIET teachers were there to see that the programme started well. The trainingbegan with a melodious Guru Vandana presented by Madam Samrajya Laxmi PGT-Physics ZIETBBSR. Madam Usha Iyer then gave the welcome address to the gathering and explained in anutshell the importance of this training course for the primary teachers, explaining how theteachers can easily improve the confidence level of the children to speak in English. It was indeedinspiring.

Madam Usha Iyer took a class on phonetics, the most important aspect in spoken English. Shevery clearly explained all the 24 consonants sounds and gave a thorough practice on it. The wholeclass was lively. There was a ten minute tea break after which the class continued and Madamhelped the participants in the identification of words with difficult consonants. Then theparticipants were engaged with worksheets for thorough practice. Thereafter a good number ofdoubts were cleared. After the lunch break of one hour the afternoon session began at two pm.Resource person Ms S.D.C.Francis, PGT English of KV INS Chilka gave practice of speaking througha programme of extempore, where we were all divided into groups according to our regions andseveral topics were assigned to us to prepare upon. Later on, from each group, a speaker wasselected to participate in the extempore on a new topic. After the tea break the extemporeactivity continued. All the six speakers were judged and awarded points on different aspects likecontent, fluency, accuracy and time limit.

16.7.2013 The second day of the workshop had a soulful beginning with the assembly programmeconducted by the members of Ranchi, Bhubaneswar and Tinsukia. The first session for the daybegan with a lesson on Vowel Sounds by the Course Director Madam Usha Iyer. She first dealtwith the pure vowel sounds and then in the next session she dealt with the vowel glides ordiphthongs. The teachers felt that this strengthened and improved their speaking skills and theyunderstood the use of correct pronunciation to make communication retain its fragrance.

An interactive session was held by Madam S.D.C.Francis, PGT English KV INS Chilka, on ‘Stressand Intonation’. She elaborated through various examples on how one may lose the importance

of the meaning of a sentence if a word or two is wrongly stressed. She also made us aware of thefact that how we express our thoughts are more important than what we say. Group activity wasthen carried out under the supervision of Ms Sushila Ramachandran, PGT English, KV No:1Bhubaneswar. She provided the participants with a script for a skit and asked the participants toenact it with Proper stress, intonation and pronunciation. It was a lively and hilarious sessionwhere the teachers imitated the dialogues of a student and a teacher in conversation with eachother.

Post lunch session began with an interesting and highly interactive class on diphthongs deliveredby Madam Iyer. She clarified many concepts on the articulation of Diphthongs throughworksheets. Sufficient time was allotted for the practice of English Poem Recitation by differentgroups thus leading towards the closure of the day’s programme.

Reported By: Milly Tanti (Kolkata Region)

17/07/13

The culminating day of the three days’ workshop on spoken English began with the morningassembly which was conducted by three regions namely Kolkata, Silchar and Guwahati.

The morning session started on a very pleasant note as we were addressed by our highly reveredCourse Director Ms. Usha Iyer, DC ZIET Bhubaneswar. She gave a brief outline of the day’sactivities. Group recitation competition was held in which all the six regions enthusiastically tookpart. Thereafter the results were declared amidst a lot of clapping and cheering.

After the refreshing tea, an equally refreshing and interesting session on pronunciation was takenup by our honourable resource person Mr. K.P. Dash. He pointed out the various nuances ofpronunciation. Believing in the dictum “When you know better, you do better”, he helped us topronounce those words correctly which we often mispronounce. It was indeed a very enrichingand valuable lesson for all of us. Thereafter, all the groups were assigned the task of listing outthe words which are difficult to pronounce from the English textbook of classes I-V.

Post lunch session began with drilling of the listed words with correct pronunciation. We had toperform a lot of internal acrobatic feats with our tongue, teeth and palate, to pronounce thewords correctly, under the supervision of our highly esteemed Course Director and learnedresource persons. It was a highly enjoyable and beneficial exercise.
